I hear ya .. ( 97 ) is refering to my current and still leaking HG also .... have the studs , just need to get the head off and get er done .... $$$$$ is thin right now though ...

 

i know what you mean man especially working on this trucks its a rollin bank haha

 

Right !!!!!


Bought the truck (9/2012) for 5500 bucks ... 2K down and financed the other 3.... then plowed down another 1500 for , exhaust, manifold, oil change, coolant, gear cover gaskets for KDP kill, TC &filter kit.... did i forget anything ??? Oh and a new set of tires(600 $ ) .... and then this year VB, guages ( pyro, trans, boost, oil pressure ), pod, deep pan and filter kit for the new pan, carrier bearings and pinion bearings & fluid.... just a few grand here and there .... so far, were up to about 9k in the truck in just over a year ... and no looking back, still need to overhaul front end, need new gears for diff ( the old ones are shot due to the P.O. running with bad pinion bearings), input for trans & hard parts to make a good 5th wheel puller, Air bags too .... the list can be nearly endless, not to mention the new turbo(s) i would really like to put on fro lower EGT's ... LOL, this could take another 10K with out blinking ...

 

lets just say i bought mine with a beat body on 7in lift with warn out m16-ss mud tires for 6k, 292k on her. fixed the body,lift,rear end,front end, added stabilizers,body work,paint,guages,tinted, windows,did the engine,now doing it again but built,built transvercase every thing still a huge list to go on.

 

since we are on the subject. the diesel world is in my opinion the most expensive HP per input dollar once you get past the freebie mods. by far an away the most expensive hobby ive ever got emmersed in. your either bit by the dark bug or your an outsider looking in thnking what an idiot.

 

Could be worse turbo2332, you could be trying to build a Honda to go fast .

 

LMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA .... a honda thats fast .. FK thats funny!!!!!
